| 0.5 : 0.5: Mohammad Nabi to Ajinkya Rahane, FOUR! First boundary of the game comes from Rahane's bat. Full and on middle, turning in. Ajinkya Rahane sweeps and hits it well over short fine leg for a boundary. |
| 1.4 : 1.4: Gerald Coetzee to Ajinkya Rahane, OUT! Gerald Coetzee strikes and it is the short ball again that serves him the wicket here. |
| 2.4: Mohammad Nabi to Ruturaj Gaikwad, SIX! Skipper with an early impact. Tossed up, outside off. Ruturaj Gaikwad gets on his knee and thumps it over long on for a maximum. |
| 3.6 : 3.6: Jasprit Bumrah to Rachin Ravindra, FOUR! He was looking for it and he gets it. A length ball on middle from around the wicket. Rachin Ravindra flicks with great timing and beats the man at mid-wicket. It rolls to the fence in no time. 6 runs of this one. |
| 4.1 : 4.1: Gerald Coetzee to Ruturaj Gaikwad, FOUR! Gerald Coetzee follows Ruturaj Gaikwad on the leg side as he serves a length ball. Ruturaj Gaikwad is cramped as he tries to fend it away but luckily gets some bat on it and it rolls to fine leg. |
| 4.2 : 4.2: Gerald Coetzee to Ruturaj Gaikwad, SIX! MASSIVE! Good start by the skipper. 20 runs off 10 balls already. A bumper on leg. Ruturaj Gaikwad probably anticipated the length as he makes room to slash this one over backward point for a biggie. |
| 4.4 : 4.4: Gerald Coetzee to Ruturaj Gaikwad, FOUR! That was a freebie! A gentle full toss on middle and Ruturaj Gaikwad flicks it with ease to to the left of deep square leg for a boundary. 14 runs so far of this over. |
| 5.2 : 5.2: Akash Madhwal to Rachin Ravindra, FOUR! Should have been stopped! |
| 5.4 : 5.4: Akash Madhwal to Ruturaj Gaikwad, FOUR! A bit too straight from Akash Madhwal and he pays the price. A pacey length ball from over the wicket and right on the pads, just wristed away around the corner by Ruturaj Gaikwad for another boundary. Chennai ending the Powerplay with a bit of a flourish. |
| 7.4: Shreyas Gopal to Rachin Ravindra, SIX! Up, up and away! Tossed up full and around off, Shreyas Gopal doesn't get it wide enough and Rachin Ravindra is able to reach it with ease. Ravindra gets low and powers it a long way over long on for a maximum. |
| 7.5 : 7.5: Shreyas Gopal to Rachin Ravindra, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! What an excellent take by Ishan Kishan and what a review as well. More than half an appeal for caught behind but the keeper seems to be the only one interested. Oh, hang on! Hardik Pandya has reviewed it! Shreyas Gopal bowls this one flat and on a length, angling it well across the left-hander, Rachin Ravindra looks to reach out and cut but seems to be beaten past the outside edge. Kishan takes a sharp take to his left and UltraEdge |
| 9.1 : 9.1: Hardik Pandya to Shivam Dube, FOUR! Shivam Dube will be much more comfortable with Pandya's pace. Too short to begin with and over leg stump, Dube gets nicely on top of the bounce and nails the pull into the square leg fence. |
| 9.3 : 9.3: Hardik Pandya to Shivam Dube, FOUR! In the gap! Pitched-up delivery outside off and Shivam Dube gets his hands through for the cover drive. The ball goes a bit uppishly and between cover and mid off, not perfectly timed and Mohammad Nabi gave a valiant chase but the outfield is just lightning quick. |
| 9.4 : 9.4: Hardik Pandya to Shivam Dube, FOUR! Easy pickings and Hardik Pandya is getting it all wrong at the moment. |
| 10.1 : 10.1: Romario Shepherd to Shivam Dube, FOUR! CHANCE! Huge chance but was a hard one to grab! A hard length delivery, outside off. Dube gives a full kitchen sink into it, hits it hard and to the right of mid off. Hardik Pandya dives but just gets his fingertips to it. The ball was dipping towards the fielder and was a hard one to stop. |
| 10.6 : 10.6: Romario Shepherd to Shivam Dube, FOUR! More runs! 12 runs of this over. Mumbai leaking runs suddenly. 27 runs in last two overs. Short and outside off, Dube ramps it over short third man for a boundary. Poor delivery knowing third man was in. |
| 11.6: Akash Madhwal to Ruturaj Gaikwad, SIX! 10 runs off the over. 100 up for Chennai! They know 200 isn't enough and are keeping up well for the goal. A length ball on middle, Ruturaj Gaikwad hangs back and tonks it over long on for a biggie. Ball comes well onto the bat. |
| 12.4 : 12.4: Gerald Coetzee to Ruturaj Gaikwad, SIX! Fifty for Ruturaj Gaikwad! Excellent knock so far! He needs to continue! What a shot though to reach the landmark! A length ball, around off. Ruturaj Gaikwad with a lofted shot, generates the power off the forearm and hits it well over long off. |
| 13.2 : 13.2: Romario Shepherd to Shivam Dube, SIX! That was six right from when it left the bat. Short of a length and on the hips, sits nicely for the left-hander. Shivam Dube pulls it over square leg for a biggie. |
| 13.3 : 13.3: Romario Shepherd to Shivam Dube, SIX! THIS IS HUGE! Absolute monster of a shot from Shivam Dube! He loves this ground. He is a Mumbaikar after all. This is in the arc, full and on middle, Shivam Dube launches it over long on for a biggie. Two in a row. |
| 13.4 : 13.4: Romario Shepherd to Shivam Dube, FOUR! Dube turning it up for Chennai! Time for another over from Bumrah maybe? Short in length and on middle, well-directed but Shivam Dube pulls it well in the gap and even the dive from deep mid-wicket is not enough. Four. |
| 13.6 : 13.6: Romario Shepherd to Ruturaj Gaikwad, FOUR! Ruturaj Gaikwad's one hand comes off but he times it so well here. A gentle full toss, outside off. Ruturaj Gaikwad throws his bat and hits it well past deep point for a boundary. What an over for Chennai, 22 runs off it. |
| 14.3 : 14.3: Akash Madhwal to Shivam Dube, FOUR! Through the hands! This is very full and outside off, Shivam Dube drives it uppishly and to covers. Rohit Sharma flies to his right and tries to take one-handedly but it shaves past his fingers for four. |
| 14.5 : 14.5: Akash Madhwal to Ruturaj Gaikwad, SIX! Shot of a the day so far! Ruturaj Gaikwad and Shivam Dube are putting on a show. Both Mumbabikars putting Mumbai under pressure. A full toss, outside off. Ruturaj Gaikwad steps down and slashes it. The fielder there watches it sail over him. |
| 14.6 : 14.6: Akash Madhwal to Ruturaj Gaikwad, FOUR! This is an assault now on the bowlers! Ruturaj Gaikwad again steps down, this is full and wide of off. Ruturaj Gaikwad yet again times his shot close to perfection as he hits it to deep point for a boundary. 17 runs of the over. |
| 15.2 : 15.2: Hardik Pandya to Ruturaj Gaikwad, OUT! CAUGHT! The skipper brings himself on in a pressure situation and does the job for his side. |
| 16.5 : 16.5: Jasprit Bumrah to Shivam Dube, Four! |
| 17.1 : 17.1: Gerald Coetzee to Shivam Dube, FOUR! Flicked away with ease and Gerald Coetzee is under pressure right away. A full toss on the pads, Shivam Dube picks it up nd flicks it over backward square leg for a boundary. |
| 17.6 : 17.6: Gerald Coetzee to Shivam Dube, FOUR! Gerald Coetzee was playing with fire there and Shivam Dube does get the boundary, albeit a streaky one. Banged in short and over leg stump, pace on this time and Diube just goes at it. The ball takes the top edge and flies down to fine leg for four runs. |
| 19.1 : 19.1: Hardik Pandya to Daryl Mitchell, FOUR! Powered down the ground! |
| 19.2 : 19.2: Hardik Pandya to Daryl Mitchell, OUT! CAUGHT! Top catch from Mohammad Nabi in the deep and Hardik Pandya gets his man. Tries to go full and outside off, Daryl Mitchell shuffles across the off stump and tries to power it over long on but hits it flat towards the long on fence where Nabi grabs it around his head. Mitchell was struggling a bit with his timing and now has to depart. |
| 19.3 : 19.3: Hardik Pandya to MS Dhoni, SIX! The decibel levels are at a max after that shot! |
| 19.4 : 19.4: Hardik Pandya to MS Dhoni, SIX! Wow, that was hit hard! Fractionally short and around off, MS Dhoni leans back this time and muscles the ball flat and between deep mid-wicket and long on for back-to-back sixes. |
| 19.5 : 19.5: Hardik Pandya to MS Dhoni, SIX! A hattrick of sixes from the legend himself and the crowd is going wild. Hardik Pandya is being pummeled here and the 200 comes up for Chennai as well. A poor delivery really as Pandya serves a juicy full toss on the legs, Dhoni just swings across the line and dumps it into then stands over deep square leg. Already 24 off the over and there's one ball remaining. |
| 0.5 : 0.5: Tushar Deshpande to Rohit Sharma, FOUR! Tucked away neatly and Rohit Sharma is off the mark with a boundary and Mumbai have their first runs on the board. Good length around middle, slanting in and just clipped away off the pads in front of square leg for four runs. |
| 1.1 : 1.1: Mustafizur Rahman to Rohit Sharma, FOUR! Erring in line right away and Rohit Sharma won't miss out on that one. Bowled on a length and on leg stump, Sharma gets inside the line and flicks it down to fine leg for a boundary to begin the over. |
| 2.2 : 2.2: Tushar Deshpande to Ishan Kishan, FOUR! Ishan Kishan latches onto that one in a flash! |
| 2.5 : 2.5: Tushar Deshpande to Rohit Sharma, SIX! That's bread and butter for Rohit Sharma! Dug in short but just around waist height and outside off, Sharma gets across a bit and pulls it handsomely off the front foot and over deep mid-wicket for a biggie. |
| 3.3 : 3.3: Shardul Thakur to Ishan Kishan, FOUR! Exquisite ball striking from Ishan Kishan! Pitched up around off stump and right in the slot, Kishan gets on the front foot and creams the drive through the gap at covers for a boundary. |
| 3.2 : 3.2: Shardul Thakur to Ishan Kishan, SIX! BANG! Banged in short over leg stump and hurried the batter but Ishan Kishan watches it well and swivels on his toes before brutally hitting the pull shot over deep backward square leg for a maximum. |
| 4.1 : 4.1: Mustafizur Rahman to Rohit Sharma, FOUR! Rohit Sharma takes the aerial route and Mumbai are flying at the moment. Fuller one floated up on off and middle, trying to angle it across but Sharma comes down the pitch and backs away before lofting it over mid off for a boundary. |
| 4.2 : 4.2: Mustafizur Rahman to Rohit Sharma, SIX! That is massive and probably the biggest one of the game! Hits the deck hard and around off, Rohit Sharma goes deep in the crease and shuffles across a touch before pulling it into the top tier over the deep square leg fence for a 90-meter behemoth. |
| 4.6 : 4.6: Mustafizur Rahman to Ishan Kishan, FOUR! Gets a loose delivery and puts it away to make it 15 runs in the over. Slightly short and wide, Ishan Kishan latches onto the width and cuts it past the point fielder for a boundary. The 50-run stand comes up between these two as well. |

| 10.5 : 10.5: Ravindra Jadeja to Tilak Varma, FOUR! Hammered away and Ravindra Jadeja is being put away in this over. Too full and wide outside off, Tilak Varma opens up his arms and thrashes the drive through covers for another boundary. |

| 12.3 : 12.3: Ravindra Jadeja to Tilak Varma, FOUR! Tilak Varma nails the reverse sweep and brings up the 50-run stand as well. Fuller in length and on off stump, Varma reverse-sweeps it away wide of short third and picks up a boundary. |
| 13.3: Matheesha Pathirana to Tilak Varma, FOUR! Oh, that is extremely well-timed from Tilak Varma. Looks for the toe-crushing yorker at 150.6 clicks but Varma is ready for it. Varma clears the front leg and uses the wrists to whiop it wide of long on for a boundary. |

| 17.3 : 17.3: Matheesha Pathirana to Romario Shepherd, OUT! BOWLED! Matheesha Pathirana showing the dug out how many wickets he has got. Four-fer for him.
